More Complicated food does not mean better food.

I dont want my steak with a thick bitter chocolate sauce that pairs with the Beet sauce squirted artfully around the plate, I dont want to try my steak with 18 different steak sauces.

I dont need my chicken curry to be paired with puree asparagus sauce, a Smokey egg yolk poured over peas and you replaced the butter for my bread with a mushroom pate.

Since when did good food stop just being...good food.

Cook it well, let the food speak for itself.

    Meh somethings are fun others not, I had Heston Blumenthals pineapple dessert and it was insanely delicious. I had to order before my starter because the process took too long long.

    I did then once get served fish in jelly like you would feed a cat from a pouch, on a cracker, as part of a different tasting menu
